Coalville CDP, IA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Coalville CDP is a very small community in Iowa, with 652 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #412 of 1,026 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 36.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Coalville CDP earn a median of $68,750 a year, 12.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $67,791 median for the 290 Iowa cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 6.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Coalville CDP is valued at $165,300, 45.5% below the national figure and 6% above the $156,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 93.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
With 652 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Coalville CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Coalville CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
